Aviom reports that Trinity Lutheran Church in Waupaca, Wis., recently debuted its new sanctuary, offering expanded seating capacity, more space up front for musicians and choirs, and new technology to enhance the worship experience for members and visitors.

Among the new technologies included in the audio system design for the church, which was installed by Sonic Art, is the new Aviom AllFrame Multi-Modular I/O System to network audio to various locations around the facility. The church also included an Aviom Personal Mixing System for its musicians in its audio system upgrade.

Sonic Art designed and installed the Pro64 audio network and Pro16 personal mixing system to function like an analog system, although the Aviom system offers far more flexibility than a traditional system would. According to Brian Christ, senior A/V designer for Sonic Art, “The AllFrame System made the installation simple and straightforward with less failure points than an analog system, and the audio quality is excellent.”

Sonic Art wired the church with Cat-5 and placed A-Net connection jacks (RJ-45s) in various locations to allow for the Aviom AllFrames to be placed at any of these points with an installed connection to the digital Yamaha LS9-32 in the sound booth. Two 6416Y2 A-Net Interface Cards are installed in the console for digital I/O into the Aviom network. The church’s equipment room houses an amp rack with an MH10 Merger Hub which distributes A-Net to five POA80 Power Over A-Net Power Supplies and an ASI A-Net Systems Interface. The ASI converts Pro64 A-Net to Pro16 A-Net and is connected to an A-16D Pro A-Net Distributor that sends power and Pro16 A-Net to up to eight A-16II Personal Mixers used by the choir and praise band.
